Do custom fields for screens get overridden when Jira is updated by Atlassian?

We are looking into using Custom Fields on some of our Issue Screens. Before we do, our concern with adding and using a new custom field is that it will be overridden or removed when JIRA is updated\upgraded. Has anyone had an issue with this in the past?

Hi Luke, I would be very surprised if anyone reports such an issue. Maintaining data integrity through the upgrade process is crucial to Jira’s ongoing adoption. I’ve worked with Jira for 12 years now and never seen or heard of any such issues.
